Favourite Joe 'era'
« on: February 19, 2004, 03:15:43 PM »
I'm sure everyone has been asked this before, but I was curious as to which year of joes was your favourite.  

Being the young buck that I am, I didn't really start collecting joes 'til about '87 or '88.  However, my favourite year is probably '86.  Although the previous years had so many of the major characters, I mostly remember  watching Joe after school on WUTV with all the '86'ers.

83, 84, and 85.

If I had to pick just one........ I'd go with 84.

Tough call.  It's either 1984, 1985 or 1986 for me. If I had to pick one, I go with 1984.  Mutt, Firefly, Storm Shadow, Zartan and Baroness are still some of the best figures ever made.

Totally agree. 84, 85 and 86 were the best years, but 85 is the best of them all.

Things were never the same after the movie. sigh....

Eventhough 84 had cool different characters from Torpedo to Snowjob; I still have to go with 86 because that was what I remembered best, since I was only four at the time. 87 and 88 rocked too because of the playsets. I would definitely say 87.

Gotta go with 84-85 as well. And if memory serves, Torpedo and Snowjob were 83. ;)
